Abstract
Features are provided for the analysis of collections of data and automatic grouping of data having certain similarities. A collection of data regarding user interactions with item-specific content can be analyzed. The analysis can be used to identify groups of items that are of interest to groups of similar users and/or to identify groups of users with demonstrated interests in groups of similar items. Data may be analyzed in a 'bottom-up' manner in which correlations within the data are discovered in an iterative manner, or in a 'top-down' manner in which desired top-level groups are specified at the beginning of the process. A bottom-up process may also be distributed among multiple devices or processors to more efficiently discover groups when using large collections of data.
